PostBaby

C++ native app to test HTTP endpoints

Demo

Postbaby-Demo-1.mp4

Dependencies

CMake
OpenGL (with supporting drivers)
CMake supported C++ Compiler
Python 3 (to generate GL bindings)
pip (for pre-commit)

Debian/Ubuntu

You also need the dev libraries for OpenSSL installed.

sudo apt-get install libx11-dev xorg-dev libglu1-mesa-dev libssl-dev

Windows

Windows systems need the Visual Studio environment setup with the necessary files for C++ development. If required, you need to run

vcvarsall.bat x64

Windows has been configured to use WINSSL

Get Started

git clone https://github.com/theProgrammerDavid/PostBaby.git

Building

Create a build folder and cd into that, and run cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. for a Release build with the build system of choice.
The DCURL_CA_BUNDLE flag is passed as a temp fix on some Linux systems
Configuring CMake might take a while initially as it is downloading dependencies
Once configured, build it using the selected build system. On *nix systems you can use make -j$(nproc)
The built binary will be in ${PostBaby_ROOT}/build/src/PostBaby

Development

We need the following packages installed clang clang-format clang-tidy uncrustify cppcheck iwyu
We also need to install pre-commit using pip

pip install pre-commit && pre-commit install

Pre-commit hooks will run per commit
